Thieves have stolen money made from a recent Justin Bieber gig in South Africa.

The Canadian star performed at the Soccer City stadium in Johannesburg on Sunday (May 12) as he took his 'Believe' tour to the African country.

However, a gang of criminals broke into the stadium and stole money that had been accrued from the gig, as well as cash from a recent Bon Jovi concert held at the venue a day earlier.

Reuters reports that three million rand (£213,000) was stolen, whilst the BBC say one million rand (£71,000) was taken.

A local police officer told Reuters:

"The money was taken from the building and they only realised today [May 13]. We don't know how many people were involved as we are still gathering evidence."
